XRK32308
3.3V ZERO DELAY BUFFER
REV. P1.0.3
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
XRK32308 is a 3.3V Zero Delay Buffer designed to
distribute high-speed clocks in PC, workstation,
datacom, telecom, and other high-performance
applications.
The part has an on-chip PLL which locks to an input
clock presented on the REF pin. The PLL feedback is
required to be driven into the FB pin, and can be
obtained from one of the outputs. The input-to-output
skew is guaranteed to be less than 350 ps, and
output-to-output skew is guaranteed to be less than
200 ps.
XRK32308 has two banks of four outputs each.
These can be controlled by the Select inputs as
shown in Table 2, “Select Input Decoding,” on page 2.
If all output clocks are not required, Bank B can be
three-stated. The select inputs also allow the input
clock to be directly applied to the output for chip and
system testing purposes.
Multiple XRK32308 devices can accept the same
input clock and distribute it in a system. In this case,
the skew between the outputs of two devices is
guaranteed to be less than 700 ps.
XRK32308 devices are available in five different
configurations, as shown in Table 3, “Available
XRK32308 Configurations,” on page 3.
The XRK32308–1 is the base part, where the output
frequencies equal the reference if there is no counter
in the feedback path.
The XRK32308–1H is the high-drive version of the –
1. Rise and fall times on this device are faster.
The XRK32308–2 allows the user to obtain 1X, and
2X or X/2 depending on which Bank sources the FB
signal.
The XRK32308–3 allows the user to obtain 4X and
2X frequencies or 1X and 2X.
The XRK32308–4 enables the user to obtain 2X
clocks on all outputs.
The XRK32308–5H is a high-drive version with REF/
2 on both banks.

Output Load Difference: FB Load - QAx/QBx Load (pF)
Note: Target only, actual characterization curve may be slightly different.
To close the feedback loop of the XRK32308, the FB pin can be driven from any of the eight available output
pins. The output driving the FB pin will be driving a total load of 7 pF plus any additional load that it drives. The
relative loading of this output (with respect to the remaining outputs) can adjust the input-output delay. This is
shown in the graph above.
For applications requiring zero input-output delay, all outputs including the one providing feedback should be
equally loaded. If input-output delay adjustments are required, use the above graph to calculate loading
differences between the feedback output and remaining outputs.
For zero output-output skew, be sure to load outputs equally.
